Zirconium Implant Treatment in Turkey: Cost, Procedure & Patient Reviews
Zirconium dental implants are fully ceramic, metal-free alternatives to titanium implants. For UK and Irish patients with metal sensitivities, a preference for biocompatible materials, or aesthetic concerns about implant-gum visibility, zirconium offers a premium solution with the same long-term stability as titanium.
What zirconium implants are
Zirconium implants are made from yttria-stabilised zirconium oxide, a high-strength ceramic that integrates with bone the way titanium does. They are tooth-coloured rather than grey, so they do not show a dark shadow through thin gum tissue. They are also bioinert — meaning they do not trigger any metal-sensitivity reaction — which matters for patients who have tested positive for titanium hypersensitivity or who want to avoid metal restorations entirely.
Zirconium Implant Treatment Before & After in Turkey
Who should consider zirconium over titanium
Zirconium is the right choice for three groups of patients: those with documented titanium or general metal sensitivity, those who prioritise biocompatible and metal-free restoration as a personal preference, and those with very thin gum biotypes where a grey titanium implant might be visible through the gum line. For everyone else, high-grade titanium implants remain the most studied and most widely supported option.
How treatment works in Antalya
Zirconium implant cases follow a two-trip protocol similar to standard implants. The first trip (5–7 days) covers extraction if needed, zirconium implant placement and temporary crown or bridge. After 3–6 months of bone integration in the UK or Ireland, the second trip (5–7 days) fits the final zirconium crown. Because zirconium is a two-piece system for the implant plus crown, the aesthetic result is fully metal-free from root to visible surface.
Zirconium Implant Treatment Patient Reviews from the UK & Ireland
Very professional from initial consultation then to first procedure And the final results are great for my confidence and feeling Thanks to an amazing team Especially Onur,Tugce,Batu
Had zirconium crowns fitted. Really happy with the results. The team at AST are brilliant from the shuttle driver to the dentists & owners. Everything ran smoothly - and they keep you up to date every step of the way. If you're thinking about getting your teeth sorted these guys are real perfectionists. You wont leave disappointed
I would personally like to not only thank the dentist and surgeons, but also onur and Jon, the translator batu and the receptionist each person made my experience what it was. The care and treatment was next level for me. From start to finish I was more than looked after 24 hours I was able to contact any of these with questions even down to translating information in the pharmacy when my partner needed medication whilst we was over here. I really have made friends for life treated like family which I loved thabk you so much AMAZING SMILE you have made me happy when I look in the mirror for the first time in over 20 years
All the staff are amazing and help in anyway they can I would recommend AMAZING SMILE TURKEY to everyone and family thank you so much to you all
My journey started with a meeting with Oj and Can in Belfast. Everything was organized incredibly smoothly! ✨ Upon arriving in Turkey, driver Kadir greeted me with a big smile and great warmth. He drove me from the hotel to the clinic and back every time – always on time, smiling and friendly 😊 At the clinic, I received a warm welcome from Can and Oj. I also met Batu, who always welcomed me and saw me off – a very friendly guy! I got to know the entire team and I can honestly say that I was treated like a friend, or even like a family member ❤️ A huge thank you to my wonderful dentist Gamze and nurse Humeyra! 🙏 Gamze is an outstanding specialist in her field. She works until she achieves perfection – and that perfection is my new smile! 😁✨ Big respect to the clinic owner for putting together such an amazing and warm team. I highly recommend Amazing Smile Turkey to anyone who needs a new smile or even the smallest dental treatment! 💯
Amazing service from day 1. Very caring and great communication throughout. Onur is there 24/7 to help with any problems at all and always explains in good detail. Best service in Antalya and amazing results. Would highly recommend 5*+
Initially, My wife and I had a meeting in Leeds. We found Onur and the team very friendly and knowledgeable. She was advised that 'all on 6 was the best option for top and crowns to match for bottom. Everything was explained and the price was affordable(20k cheaper than uk) so we arranged our first visit. On arrival, we were picked up at airport and taken to our hotel. We were given pick up times and were always picked up on time. Treatment started the following day, impressions were taken and some teeth extracted. Bone grafting and sinus lift were necessary. This process was pain free thanks to injections, pain killers were prescribed for her comfort over the next few days. We returned for implants and crowns to be fixed. Time was taken to reassure her throughout the whole process and the whole team were very friendly and approachable the whole time. Onur was available and willing to talk and explain everything during the whole process. The price given at initial meeting in Leeds didn't change, which I know isn't the case at some of the other dentists in Turkey. She now does have an amazing, natural looking smile and is enjoying eating things she hasn't been able to for some time. We were left feeling like friends rather than clients. Would 100% recommend Amazing Smile Turkey.
From start to finish the service was second to none really professional company looked after us really well more than happy with my new teeth we had the pleasure of having Onur as our representative he treated us like family brought us every where we needed to go the doctors were top class service would highly recommend🦷🇹🇷
Onur very helpful, the service was very professional
So much care took in my opinion the best dentist I have ever been to ! And would quite happily come back for check ups. Lovely hotel and met so many nice people.
Long-term data and honest caveats
Long-term studies on zirconium implants are more limited than for titanium, which has 50+ years of data. Current 10-year studies show zirconium survival rates comparable to titanium in well-selected cases. We recommend zirconium honestly — when it is right for your case — rather than as a blanket upgrade. If titanium is clinically better for your case, we say so.
